Super Bowl Twist

GRRRRRR! I had HUGE plans to get started on the Super Bowl Twist but Hubby got home late tonight so now sewing. I have a small stash of RWB 2.5 inch strips I plan to use for a quilt to donate to Alycia for the Quilts of Valor project. She has an amazing dedication to this group and is so close to gathering 400 quilts, her personal goal.

With luck I will start Tuesday.

1 + 1 = 2 then.... 2 + 2 = 4!

Welcome to the first post of my crafting blog! I wanted to keep my personal blog when I address the real craziness separate from the crafting. In the future, I want to have a fun productive crafting biz and this is the first step.

On this first post I want to share my first quilting blocks made for the Heartstrings Quilt Project. This is a prolific group of quilters who make string quilts for different charity groups. Right we are working on Quilts of Valor for member Alycia who has a goal of collecting 400 finished quilts to donate in 2009. I was a part of one quilt by donaitng a section, but now I want to try and make my own full top.

In September and October we are sewing green centered blocks. I had yet to sew a real string block, so last night I got down to business. I made 4 blocks then sewed them together... a start! Only 44 more to go!
